Overview

More Info

Some agaves take a decade to grow; wild tepextate takes fifteen to eighteen, foraged from Oaxaca's highlands around Candelaria Yegolé. Rey Campero's Sánchez Parada family cooks it in an earthen pit, crushes it under a stone tahona, then lets wild yeast work through a slow open-air ferment in pine and cypress vats before double-distilling in copper pots. The result: white flowers and yellow pepper up front, easing into coriander and banana leaf, finishing on jalapeño and Sichuan peppercorn. Pour it neat and give it time to unfold.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ 5/5 AI Rating

Reviewers on Mezcal Reviews, Mezcalistas and Distiller call Rey Campero Tepextate a really solid upper-tier mezcal from 15-18 year wild agave. Tasters praise green pepper, jalapeño, tropical fruit and white pepper finish — better value than El Jolgorio's tep, per critics.
